Thermaltake Unveils The Pacific V-GTX 10 Series Water Block
John Williamson / 8 years ago
Thermaltake has entered into a partnership with ASUS to unleash the Pacific V-GTX 10 Series Transparent water block. This particular product is crafted exclusively to for the ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080/1070 Gaming graphics cards and provides additional headroom to overclock even further while enjoying a stunning aesthetic. Thermaltake’s new water block is designed with virtual reality in mind and conforms to the “Tt LCS Certified” standard. This is a mark of quality and guarantees the best performance and compatibility.
On another note, the CNC machined copper base can avoid corrosion and an aluminium alloy backplate is deployed to prevent twisting and bowing of the PCB. Also, the water block features a 0.5mm internal fin construction with a high-flow which allows coolant to pass directly over critical areas, leading to improved heat dissipation.
Kenny Lin, President and CEO of Thermaltake said about the company’s new venture:
“We always seek for a chance to build a stronger relationship with our consumers and in turn better understand their needs. From CES 2016 to COMPUTEX 2016, we saw how virtual reality changed gaming, and how this technology created a truly immersive gaming experience for people. We also found how important the liquid-cooling solution is in this market trend. ASUS is one of the most realizable brands in gaming, so it is our great honor to collaborate with them. Together we not only can provide gamers around the world with an unbeatable 4K gaming experience, but can also create a greater e-Sports community,”
Elaine Wen, Senior Director, ASUS Graphics Card Business Unit added:
“We are very excited to partner with Thermaltake to bring the extreme performance of water block cooling to the ROG Strix GTX 1080 and ROG Strix GTX 1070 graphics cards,”
“We hope to continue working closely in the future to create even more incredible products that provide the most entertaining experiences to gamers.”
Here we can see the list of features in full:
Mirror-Finished CU Base
The specially machined copper base prevents corrosion and fully complies with Thermaltake’s highest quality standards. The mating surface to the GPU has a mirror finish, providing exceptional heat transfer for the most demanding use conditions.
High Water Flow Design
The coolant flow path includes all critical components. Proper cooling of these components contributes to overclocking stability and reliable operation. The block covers the entire PCB, leaving no components exposed to possible damage during handling.
Unique Micro-Channel Structure
The Pacific V-GTX 10 Series Transparent is designed with a compact form factor featuring 0.5mm micro-channel fin construction for optimal clearance and extreme heat dissipation. The copper base fits most G1/4 fittings.
Special Design Backplate
The aluminum alloy made backplate features 4mm thick to prevent twist and bow on the PCB.
Remarkable Expansion
Designed to fit ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080/1070 with a universal mounting mechanism, the Pacific V-GTX 10 Series Transparent allows enthusiasts to build superior water cooling systems from an aesthetic standpoint as well as incorporate modular chassis upgrades for the future.
